How to take care of the newly bought fortune tree

1. Temperature

In order to reduce the metabolic rate of the money tree and prevent it from dying, businesses may sometimes place it in a low-temperature environment to put it into a dormant state. At this time, if you buy it home, you need to increase the temperature appropriately to make it "wake up". You can place it indoors at a temperature of about 25 degrees Celsius, or cover it with a layer of thermal insulation film to keep it warm.

2. Repotting

Generally, you should not repot the money tree you just brought home, because it is in the adaptation period to the environmental changes. Repotting at this time may damage the roots, making the situation worse. If you buy a nice pot and plan to replace it, you can consider replacing it after a week or so.

3. Watering

Under normal circumstances, merchants will usually do the drainage, watering and other work for you in advance, so you don’t need to water it after you just bring it home. Just check whether the air vents and drainage holes are blocked on the road. Wait until the soil is dry before watering, and be sure to water thoroughly.

4. Pruning

The development of each branch of the newly brought money tree must be different. At this time, the absorption of nutrients is slow due to environmental changes. Some branches need to be pruned to increase the chance of survival.
